Sea Point Pavilion

Swimming

A favourite among locals, this is one of the most popular swimming pools in Cape Town. There's an Olympic-size public swimming pool filled with seawater, although temperatures are a few degrees warmer than you'll find in the ocean, which is just on the other side of the barrier. There's also a diving pool and a children's pool, so be warned: it's very popular with families and can get crowded and noisy.
